are involved in this effort
The Courts Information Pro
gram was initiated by the
County PS&I Department to
help the State Courts provide
information to the public. A
central telephone information
line has been installed in the
new County Courthouse, a
brochure has been published
about Court functions, and
general information about the
Courts has been disseminated
throughout the County. As a
result of the pnMjram, inquiri
es about the Qourts are now
being channeled directly into
the Courthouse, where staff
familiar witfr "the Courts
system can provide detailed
information. Before the pro
gram was developed, calls for
court-related iniormation
came primarily through the
City-County Action Line, a
telephone service operated by
City and County Government
and geared to assist citizens
who have questions about
local government The Courts
